In the town of Harrowdale, shadows run deeper than anyone realizes. Sophie thought she had left her past behind, but as whispers of betrayal grow louder, she finds herself caught in a web of conspiracy that threatens to tear her world apart. As the Council tightens its grip on the town, Sophie must race against time to stop those who would turn her over to a dark force-and unravel the mysteries of her own forgotten past. With allies by her side and enemies lurking in every corner, Sophie must uncover hidden truths, face her darkest fears, and expose the traitors before it's too late. But in a town where loyalty is fleeting and trust is a fragile thing, she may find that even the ones closest to her aren't who they seem. A tale of betrayal, courage, and secrets that could change everything, Echoes of the Forgotten will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page.

” Lord Shiva gets married to Sati, the daughter of Prajapati Daksh. Sati goes to Her father’s yajna uninvited, and burns Herself in the sacrificial fire as Daksha insults Lord Shiva and Her. Lord Shiva traverses the creation with Sati’s burnt body on His shoulders, dancing the Rudra Tandava. Lord Vishnu cuts the body into pieces by Sudarshana chakra, that scatter on Bharatvarsha in Bhooloka. Lord Shiva refuses to part with Sati, and establishes Himself along with each Pindi as Swayambhu Shivlinga. Demon Tarakasura attempts to steal the Devi Pindi, and consequently Lord Shiva appoints Kshetrapal Bhairav to protect each Shaktipeeth from evil, demonic forces. The Shaktipeeths are worshipped, and an unknown span of time passes. Bharatvarsha is attacked by the mlechhas. The temples are attacked, broken and plundered. The Shivlinga is broken, and the Bhairav temple is lost. The Pindi is not visible anymore, and the idea of the existence of the Swayambhu Shivlinga is forgotten. At some places, Goddess appears in the dream of devotees to look up a particular spot where She exists. So, Kalighat temple, Attahas Peeth and Kalkaji temple are rediscovered. As a thousand years pass, the memory of the Swayambhu Shivlinga is lost and forgotten. Mahadev remains bound with Sati Pindi as Swayambhu Shivlinga, and waits to be found and worshipped again at each of the Shaktipeeth temples. As the exact spots of the Swayambhu lingam wait to be rediscovered along with the Devi Pindi, the real Shaktipeeth temples await to welcome back the lost glory of ancient Vedic India and Her cultural magnificence. ”

Religious icons have been a contested terrain across the world. Their implications and understanding travel further than the artistic or the aesthetic and inform contemporary preoccupations.This book traces the lives of religious sculptures beyond the moment of their creation. It lays bare their purpose and evolution by contextualising them in their original architectural or ritual setting while also following their displacement. The work examines how these images may have moved during different spates of temple renovation and acquired new identities by being relocated either within sacred precincts or in private collections and museums, art markets or even desecrated and lost. The book highlights contentious issues in Indian archaeology such as renegotiating identities of religious images, reuse and sharing of sacred space by adherents of different faiths, rebuilding of temples and consequent reinvention of these sites. The author also engages with postcolonial debates surrounding history writing and knowledge creation in British India and how colonial archaeology, archival practices, official surveys and institutionalisation of museums has influenced the current understanding of religion, sacred space and religious icons. In doing so it bridges the historiographical divide between the ancient and the modern as well as socio-religious practices and their institutional memory and preservation. Drawn from a wide-ranging and interdisciplinary study of religious sculptures, classical texts, colonial archival records, British travelogues, official correspondences and fieldwork, the book will interest scholars and researchers of history, archaeology, religion, art history, museums studies, South Asian studies and Buddhist studies.

In a world where darkness threatened all that was good, hope arrived in the most unexpected way. This is the story of five ordinary people, chosen not for their strength or power, but for their selflessness, kindness, and pure hearts. In the vibrant city of Dwaraka, their journey began with the arrival of a terrible enemy—Kalarath, a force of destruction who sought to spread fear and chaos. His promise to destroy the city left many feeling hopeless. But fate had something different in store. Five young heroes, each possessing qualities of compassion, courage, and a deep sense of duty, were chosen by a divine force. They found magical pendants, each linked to Lord Krishna, the eternal protector of goodness. These pendants were not just symbols—they were pieces of the Sudarshan Chakra, a divine weapon that could defeat even the greatest evil. The pendants did not choose these individuals for their physical power but for the goodness within them, their willingness to help others, and their selflessness. Brought together by destiny, the heroes formed a strong bond. Together, they stood as Dwaraka’s last hope, not because of their strength, but because of their pure hearts and the qualities that made them worthy of this divine mission. Their path was not without challenges. They faced moments of doubt and fear, but through every trial, their selflessness and compassion shone through. They realized that their true power came from their commitment to doing what was right, not from physical strength or abilities. The bond they formed wasn’t just about unity; it was about the deep connection that comes from shared purpose and goodness. With their hearts united, guided by Lord Krishna’s divine will, the heroes prepared to protect their city. They were more than warriors—they were chosen because they reflected the qualities of love, sacrifice, and selflessness that the world needed most. Together, they would face the darkness, knowing that their true strength came not from their powers but from the goodness that lived within them. "Guardians of Krishna: The Beginning" is a story of courage, faith, and the power of selflessness. It reminds us that the greatest strength comes not from what we can do, but from who we are—and that, in the face of darkness, those with the purest hearts will always light the way.

Jasper and his friends must find a way to make peace between Earth and the Youli aliens before the Youli destroy the human race in this finale of the Bounders series, which Shannon Messenger calls “richly detailed, highly imaginative.” Jasper doesn’t know how his life got so messed up. Was it when Mira decided to leave him for the Youli aliens? Was it discovering his former pod now divided in a war between Earth Force and the Resistance? Or was it when the Youli gave Earth an ultimatum: Join the Intragalactic Council or be destroyed? Now the Youli have invited Jasper’s pod to visit their world. For Jasper, this means a chance to get his friends back on the same team. It also means seeing Mira again, and hopefully convincing her to come home. But once on the Youli planet, Jasper realizes there’s something off about Mira. She’s hiding a secret, and the more he pushes her, the more she avoids him. Meanwhile, the Intragalactic Summit approaches, a meeting that will decide the fate of Earth. But Jasper has a nagging feeling that Earth Force will sabotage the Summit—and then suffer the Youli’s wrath. And how can Jasper convince Earth to unite if he can’t even unite his friends? With humanity’s future on the brink of destruction, Jasper and his friends must learn that they’re stronger together if they have any shot at saving Earth.
